Relative Safety

The vast majority of intracranial aneurysms can be obliterated completely with surgical clipping. However, postoperative remnants occur in about 4 to 8% of patients who undergo postoperative angiography. Endovascular embolization has been successfully performed in patients with postoperative aneurysm remnant and it may represent a therapeutic alternative to surgical reintervention. Twelve aneurysm remnants after surgical clipping were treated with endovascular embolization using GDC. All aneurysms were located in the anterior circulation. Our experience confirms the feasibility and relative safety of this treatment strategy that may be considered a valid alternative to reintervention.

Proximal Middle Cerebral Artery

The anterior communicating artery is a common location for intracranial aneurysms. Compared to surgical clipping, endovascular coiling has been shown to improve outcomes for patients with ruptured aneurysms and we have seen a paradigm shift favoring this technique for treating aneurysms. Access to the anterior cerebral artery can be challenging, especially in patients with tortuous anatomy or subarachnoid hemorrhage or in patients presenting with vasospasm. We present a technique for cannulating the anterior cerebral artery using a balloon inflated in the proximal middle cerebral artery as a rebound surface.

The Ideal

Abstract The ideal treatment for intracranial aneurysms has been highly controversial in the last few decades. It is particularly difficult to decide between clipping vs. coiling when it comes to an aneurysm that has already been treated. The authors performed a review of the literature published in the last ten years amongst the main neurosurgical publications and make recommendations based on this evidence and the surgical experience of the eldest author of this paper (ES). A series of cases of recurrent, incompletely coiled aneurysms treated with surgery is presented. Conclusions: aneurysms with a convenient configuration and location for either clipping or coiling might be better managed by surgical clipping in young patients considering that this treatment achieves higher rates of occlusion with a lower incidence of rebleeding. In elderly patients, each case must be discussed.

Background: Unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) are treated using endovascular treatment or microsurgical clipping. The safety and efficacy of treatments have not been compared in a randomized trial. Methods: We randomly allocated clipping or coiling to patients with 3-25mm UIAs judged treatable both ways. The primary outcome was treatment failure, defined as: initial failure of aneurysm treatment, intracranial hemorrhage or residual aneurysm on one year imaging. Secondary outcomes included neurological deficits following treatment, hospitalization >5 days, overall morbidity and mortality and angiographic results at one year. Results: 136 patients were enrolled from 2010 through 2016 and 134 patients were treated. The one-year primary outcome, available for 104 patients, was reached in 5/48 (10.4% (4.5%-22.2%)) patients allocated surgical clipping, and 10/56 (17.9% (10.0%-29.8%)) patients allocated endovascular coiling (OR: 0.54 (0.13, 1.90), P=0.40). Morbidity and mortality (mRS>2) at one year occurred in 2/48 (4.2% (1.2%-14.0%)) and 2/56 (3.6% (1.0%-12.1%)) patients allocated clipping and coiling respectively. New neurological deficits (15/65 vs 6/69; OR: 3.12 (1.05, 10.57), P=0.031), and hospitalizations beyond 5 days (30/65 vs 6/69; OR: 8.85 (3.22,28.59), P=0.0001) were more frequent after clipping. Conclusions: Surgical clipping led to greater initial treatment-related morbidity than endovascular coiling. At one year, the superior efficacy of clipping remains unproven and in need of randomized evidence.
